JP did a thing about that truck a while ago. I think it was for sale a few months back as well.
I wonder what the engine looks like now that it has been run and had a few fluid and filter changes done on it?
I don't have any pictures of my reciever hitch itself here at work. Most of the threads on here about reciever hitches show the same basic idea. Here is a picture of mine with a trailer attached and the pieces of what is becoming Sermis' M715 on the trailer.
Sam, check the breaker on the drivers side fire wall. Wire 25 is the horn power. Wire 10 should be feeding that breaker. Check and make sure 24V is going to the breaker and then see what is coming out.
All air or electric horns on M35's are supposed to be and probably will be on the...
No problem for me. I used ITS for my 1952 Gasser M35 and my 1971 M35A2. I registered them both under the former military vehicle catagory:

Since no inspection is needed, you don't need to get...
Change the fuel filters, drain out the crud in the bottom of the fuel tank, change the filters and change the filters. Carry spare filters as well. What idle speed does it have when it does idle?
You only need the air when you are stopping. If you could wire it up in such a way that you can turn it on and off from the cab, a compressor in the bed would work great. Take the system up to 110 or so, turn it off and drive until you get below 75, repeat. The buzzer will let you know if you...
I have used the winch on both M35's a lot. Pulling things onto trailers mostly. I only had to use the entire cable once. But, it was when the Gasser was down to the running boards in mud and the nearest tree was about 195 feet away.
I have often thought about just 100-125 feet. But, that...
This guy:
NAHF
Was one of the test pilots. His book is a great read for any aviation type. He mentions that one of the biggest problems was visiting brass wanting to fly the XP-59. Bell didn't want anybody esle flying it but, they needed to keep the brass happy. So, they cut a hole in the...
I am paying $32/month to USAA for the 1971 M35A2. The lady I talked to said her and her husband were looking at getting one, so she knew what it was.
This is the same price for state minimum liability I pay on my 1967 Austin Cooper S, 1967 M715 and my 1966 K20. USAA turned me down on my 1952...
I "enlarged" a 55 gallon drum trying to run a home made version of the HF air transfer set up last week. It was a new drum full of oil. I put about 10 psi to it and got a dribble. So, I upped the psi. At about 20-25, the intake line inside the drum plugged with crud from the used oil and...
Kwai and I were about 2 hours behind you on I-10 your entire trip Saturday it seems. I live 40 miles due North of exit 674. Call me if you need some help. 979-540-8478
Too bad you didn't post this last week. I picked up a case Friday night in Alabama along with a bunch of other parts and drove I-10/I-12 across LA back to Texas Saturday. With shipping the way it is and the way the 200's howl/over heat. You might be better off finding a 205 10 spline close to you.
Fuel Pump Rebuilding Kits - Then And Now Automotive
Give these people a call and they have new modern fuel ready parts for the OA331 pump. I know they have sold at least 2 kits for the stock pump in the last 6 months.
I do not have a source for stock pumps with the primer arm off the top of...
Have you been filling the fuel tank up to the top instead of to the line a few inches from the top? I ask because the fuel tank vent on mine feeds into the slobber tube just above the turbo. I have twice now believed the weather forcast that it will not get warmer, filled the truck up all the...
